This Online Donation Page is owned and provided by Harrogate Hospital & Community Charity (“we”, “our” or “HHCC”) and allows users to raise funds for, and to give donations to, HHCC. It cannot be used in connection with any other charity, or for any other charitable cause or purpose. The use of this Platform is subject to the rules below. The Terms may be amended from time to time, so you should check them regularly for any changes.

Use of Donations

1. When setting up a virtual donation page, users may be given the option of: setting a fundraising “target”, which will be visible to anyone visiting that page. Please note, however, that once we have processed and confirmed receipt of a donation this money will be treated as cleared funds in HHCC account, whether the target is ultimately achieved or no

2. Please note that charities (including HHCC) are only legally permitted to return donations in very limited circumstances e.g. where the donor lacks mental capacity. We therefore ask that you take care when entering your details when making a donation, as we may be unable to provide any refund once your payment has been processed. We do not charge a fee for processing refunds.

Gift Aid

1. If you are a UK taxpayer you are encouraged to claim Gift Aid when donating your own money to your fundraising page by completing the Gift Aid declaration when making your donation

2. If you pay in money to your donation page other than money you are donating to HHCC personally (e.g. cash from collections, family members, ticket sales and any activity where you get something in return for yo money) you cannot claim Gift Ai

3. Gift Aid can be claimed on individual donations that are made to HHCC offline. To claim Gift Aid eac individual making a donation must complete a Gift Aid declaration confirming that they are a UK taxpayer and provide his/her/their name and address including postcode. A Gift Aid Form can be downloaded here.
